Notes for Tournament Organisers

If you have any information about a forthcoming Go tournament in Britain or Ireland that is
not listed then please inform the BGA tournament coordinator
(tournament-coordinator at britgo.org) who maintains the Tournament Calendar and also arranges the equipment and so on.

You are encouraged to read our advice about
publicising tournaments. In addition it explains how to get your tournament mentioned
in the BGA newsletter, and how you can get a web page made for your tournament.
It also tells you what you need to do with the results afterwards.

You should also check the Tournament
Organisers’ FAQ that explains about using BGA equipment and other BGA services,
and the levy that is charged for use of these.

The BGA feel that it is important to provide recognition to people who
sponsor Go tournaments. If your tournament is receiving sponsorship then please
inform us so that it can be mentioned on the calendar.

If you want to see what events have been hosted previously in recent years see the archived calendars for:2016 or 2015.

Hosting a national event

Some of the events on this list, for example the British Go Congress, the UK
13×13 championship and the British Youth Go Championships are the
responsibility of the BGA council. In any particular year they arrange for a
particular club or person to host each of these events. If you are interested in
running one of these events then you are encouraged to approach a member of the
council. The BGA would like these events, in particular
the British Go Congress which includes the AGM, to visit as many different parts
of the country as possible.
